Captions won't show!

Hello Community!

I have been trying to add captions, but they are not showing. I go to the edit menu, the captions and add caption. The caption clip appears at the top of the timeline and the caption editor opens. I have already selected CEA-608 by then. Then I type my line but the subtitle won't appear on the screen. Anyone know why? Thanks in anticipation.

Captions disappearing Issue. Hi everybody. I have a strange bug while im editing the captions on my timeline. When i delete a caption then all the other captions are disappearing. Then i have to click on show captions button twice to make them appear again. Since i can not assign Show captions button to my keyboard its very annoying. I have created my captions with simon says app. Is there anybody out there who can help me with this issue? PS: Maybe apple can allow us to assign the button of show captions soon. Thanks a lot.
